Hi,
As Vlastimil mentioned at [1], it would be nice to have some guide about memory allocation. This set adds such guide that summarizes the "best practices".
The changes from the RFC include additions and corrections from Michal and Randy. I've also added markup to cross-reference the kernel-doc documentation.
I've split the patch into three to separate labels addition to the exiting files from the new contents.
v3 -> v4: * make GFP_*USER* description less confusing
v2 -> v3: * s/HW/hardware
